Labor – Limitations

Where the Commonwealth Employment Relations Board found that the Executive Office of Administration and Finance had repudiated the terms of a memorandum of understanding with the Massachusetts Correction Officers Federated Union by not using appropriated funds to pay for costs associated with mediation and dispute resolution but, instead, using those funds to pay existing employees of the human resources division of the Office of Employee Relations, the union’s complaint should have been dismissed as untimely under 456 Code Mass. Regs. 15.03 (1999).
